WHAT A SCAM, got it this morning. Please do something about this.

Received SMS from Nokia Global promotions stating that my cell no.won R175000.00 but I must pay R1950.00 insurance.If this is a scam why have'nt these fraudsters been caught yet.Surely there must be some way to catch them.

Oh dear, this is still going on as I received an email at 07:54 this morning, being 4 April 2013 which stated that I have just won R150, 000 and my Ref. No. is 0114and told to contact Sonia Owen on 076 570 4975.
Did not contact them and thought I would check the website first.
Must say I am not surprised to see what I have just seen.
Please SAP do something about these scams...as someone has already mentioned, so many desperate people are being taken.

Not sure if sending an SMS can be reported as a crime any more than bad television programs but same thing Nokia Global Prom, ref No, and a return number 078575411 - my suspicion is that dialing that number costs you money - normal rates don't apply. If they get more money from your call then it costs to send the SMS - they win - so don't reply - just delete. If they make no money they will stop.

I have recieved an sms saying I have won it's starting by congratulations! your cell number has won you the sum of R175000.00 in nokia Globval Promotion Ref: 110NKP Call Mr Dube on 0783527112 for claim, I call him using my office number it appears as private on cell number but he didn't unswer when i use my cell the lady unswered the phone her name is Thandeka Ndlovu she said they are based in Capetown 021 813 6802. Please this must stop!!!

I received a sms ten minutes ago from a number 074-192-7159 stating ' Congratulations!! Your Mobile number has won R195,000 in the 2013 Nokia Global Promo, ref No 0029. For claims contact Mrs Zandile Williams On 0710287660.' Think alot of people get caught out on these sms's however in my opinion, if you win a comptition the normal procedure is for them to contact you by phoning you, not via sms. they would have the money to spend to contact the winners instead of the cheap method of sms, with most compititions money is generally gained in the process so they can afford to call the applicants if they won. It's always better to research any potential prize or even a business venture that isn't a reputable company. Someone who doesn't do there research unlike us is either extremely gullible, totally clueless to the fraud in South Africa which is rare or lacks intelligence to make the effort.

I am also a victim of these sms's. the sme Zandile Williams and Sonia Owen have sent the same message to me this morning.They have to be stopped because many people have no access to internet where they can see these comments.

I also received a SMS from Mrs Zandile saying that my cell nr has won R195 000 an Ref 0029. For claims contact Mrs Zandile Williams on 071 028 7660 Lucky I googled the web site first. This people is sick

i also received a SMS from Mrs N.Kate saying that my cell nr has won R 195 000 and Ref 0029.To claim my cash cheque i must buy R50.00 x 4 = R200.00 virgin mobile airtime.Luckily a googled the web site and came across all your messages.Thank God I was about to spend my last R200.00

i received an sms this morning around 07:58 from this number 081 385 2093 saying " Congratulation!! your mobile number has won you the sum of R175,000.00 in NOKIA GLOBAL yearly promotion. Ref: A13NKP call Mr. Daniel on 073 901 1697 for claim." i did call him and guess what i was told to deposit the money for transfer cost for the lawyers which is an individual Acc and not a business accoun: FNB Account 62397843600 Account Holder is M. Ndimisa and Fax: 086 549 3386 clearly these people think we fulls for real.....

I received an sms this morning at 6.26 from this Sonia Owen to phone 0761846245 and that I had won R150000.00 in the 2013 NOkia Global Promo. She assured me it was not a scam! Something must be done to stop this. Cant NOkia do anything! I am a 69 year old pensioner and I dont need to receive sms of this nature.

Very strange because if I phone she do not answer and our firm can do credit checks and the cell number does not exist

Please STOP these useless brain dead parasites.

Ive lost a lot of money out of desperation in these times. I dealed with Sonja Owen 0729755357 & John Botha 0782186698. The same faudsters in the previous comments.
These people must be stopped now!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I received the SMS this morning, so I call Sonia Owen and explain that I am amused at her attempt to provide me with R 150 0000
And surely the CPA prevents this type of marketing! To my absolute amusement she retorts by saying I have been disqualified, ha ha hw funny and also sad that people get caught up with this type of nonsense.
I would lovetohear from the person who can prove they actually won any amount of money, and why cannot these fraudsters be caught?

ive recieved the same sms from the number 0817797169..i phoned this sonia owen..after that ive recieved a sms that says i must phone Mr John Both on 021 8136450 or on 0782186698...just to check thing out..ive phoned him and he sended me a sms that i must pay in R1 320 for banking charges into this account....Secretary Acc 62384348316...S.Machete
